SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES
Electrical
Be certain ALL electrical work is performed by a qualified electrician and is in compliance with local electrical codes.
ALL electrical connections are to be water resistant.
Grounding
DANGER
Grounding is required. The unit should be installed and grounded by a qualified
service representative.
WARNING
The unit MUST be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a ground
fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and
should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The
GCFI should interrupt power. Push the resest button. Power should be restored. If
the GCFI fails to operate in this manner, GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts
power to the bathtub without the test button being pushed, a ground current is
flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. DO NOT use this hydro
massage bathtub. Disconnect the hydro massage bathtub and have the problem
corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
A GREEN-colored terminal (or a wire connector marked “G,” “GR,” “Ground,” or
“Grounding”) is provided within the terminal compartment. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, connect this terminal or connector to the grounding terminal of your
electric service or supply panel with a conductor equivalent in size to the circuit
conductors suppling this equipment.
Plumbing
Be certain ALL plumbing work is performed by a qualified plumber.
Some state and local plumbing codes require the installation of a “reduced pressure zone” (RPZ) assembly on both the incoming hot and cold supply lines to prevent back flow contamination into the potable water system. Invacare recommends you check local plumbing code requirements to determine if RPZs are required on your tub installation. RPZs are NOT supplied by Invacare and are to be provided by the customer if required.
The hot water supply to the tub MUST NOT exceed 110° F (43° C) to protect the user from scalding.
When operating water pressure exceeds 55 p.s.i., pressure regulators (similar to the ¾‐
inch Watts U5) MUST be installed.
Part No 1150695

SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES
Maintenance and Inspection
DANGER
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. All disassembly and maintenance of the tub
MUST be done by a qualified technician, certified electrician or plumber.
Disconnect electrical supply or turn off circuit breaker before performing any
maintenance to the tub.
If any part of the system is not functioning properly, DO NOT use the system. Have the system serviced to correct the problem.
The system MUST be maintained on a regular basis to ensure it is functioning properly.
Disinfecting
Disinfect the tub after initial set up and ALWAYS disinfect the tub after each use to avoid resident infection and contamination of the tub.
DO NOT disinfect the tub when it is occupied otherwise injury may occur.
ALWAYS wear gloves, protective apron, and face shield protection when disinfecting or cleaning your tub.
ALWAYS handle disinfectants, cleaning compounds, and powdered sanitizers with extreme care. Physical or mechanical damage caused by improper handling or usage of such products will not be the responsibility of ICCG.
DO NOT attempt to turn on whirlpool pump during the disinfectant cycle. Doing so could result in skin or eye contact with the disinfectant, which is corrosive. If contact is made, rinse IMMEDIATELY with water. If irritation occurs, consult a physician. ALWAYS read and follow disinfectant label directions carefully.
NEVER use abrasive cleaners like scouring powder or liquid cleaners containing pumice stone. The use of these types of cleaners will make the gel‐coat finish of your tub scratched and dull. NEVER use cleaners containing iodine, bromine, Betadine® or methylene blue. The use of these types of cleaners will cause the tub to stain. Never use cleaners containing bleach. Use of these types of cleaners will dry out the rubber seals and gaskets and the tub will not function properly.

DANGER
Keep hair and body away from suction guard when pump is running.
The causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows:
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level
several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6° F. The symptoms of
hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness,
lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include:
• Failure to perceive heat
• Failure to recognize the need to exit the spa or hot tub
• Unawareness of impending hazard
• Fetal damage in pregnant women
• Physical inability to exit the spa or hot tub
• Unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia.
NEVER operate whirlpool without water level above the whirlpool jets. Severe pump damage will result.
DO NOT operate this unit without the guard over the (water intake) suction fitting. The guard is a safety device that reduces the potential hazard of hair or body entrapment. To reduce the risk of injury, DO NOT permit children or infirm persons to use this unit unless they are supervised at all times.
Recommended length of a bath is 5 to 10 minutes. However, if you become nauseous or dizzy or develop a headache, get out at once and cool down. Get medical attention if symptoms persist. Also, check with a physician before using this unit again.
Anyone under a doctorʹs supervision, pregnant, or with poor health, should check with a physician before using this unit.

SECTION 3—OPERATION
Disinfecting the Tub Using the Closed Loop System
WARNING
Disinfect the tub after EACH use to avoid resident infection and contamination of the tub.
DO NOT disinfect the tub when it is occupied otherwise injury may occur.
Read and understand all information on Invacare brand disinfectant before use.
ALWAYS wear rubber gloves, an apron and a face shield when using disinfectant. In case of eye or skin contact,
follow procedures on disinfectant container.
The disinfectant dispensing system has been factory tested and calibrated for use with Invacare disinfectant.
The use of any disinfectant with a dilution ratio (½ oz. per gallon) or viscosity level different than that of
Invacare disinfectant will result in an improper mixture of disinfectant and water. This may cause your system
to be improperly disinfected - or in some instances, not disinfected at all. If using any disinfectant with a dilution
ratio or viscosity level different than that of Invacare disinfectant or if switching from one type of disinfectant to
another type, the disinfectant flowmeter MUST be calibrated before performing this procedure. Refer to
Calibrating the Disinfectant Flow Meter on page 32.
CAUTION
NEVER use abrasive cleaners like scouring powder or liquid cleaners containing pumice stone. The use of
these types of cleaners will make the gel-coat finish of your tub scratched and dull. NEVER use cleaners
containing iodine, bromine, Betadine or methylene blue. The use of these types of cleaners will cause the
tub to stain. Never use cleaners containing bleach. Use of these types of cleaners will dry out the rubber
seals and gaskets and the tub will not function properly.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 1.
NOTE: Ensure that the whirlpool jets and whirlpool inlet fitting are closed before starting this procedure.
1. Clean the entire tub surface to remove visible tissue residue and fluid.
2. Depending on the type of whirlpool jets that are in your tub, close all jets by performing one of the following: • Turn the center of the jet clockwise to a full stop.
• Push the center of the jet in.
3. Close the whirlpool inlet by gently pulling the plug in the center of the inlet cover outward until it stops.
4. Open aerator by rotating aerator knob two turns counter‐clockwise.
5. Open disinfectant cabinet.
6. Ensure that disinfectant siphon tube is placed in disinfectant container.
7. If tub is equipped with a disinfectant wand, hold the wand over the interior of the tub.
8. Adjust water temperature to 105°F (40°C).
9. Turn disinfectant On/Off valve to the On position.
NOTE: Liquid will begin flowing from the disinfectant wand into the tub (if so equipped).
10. Turn the adjustment knob on the flowmeter until the floating ball rises to a level of 35 cc/min.
NOTE: At 35 cc/min., disinfectant is being mixed with water at the proper ratio.
11. Continue to hold the disinfectant wand over the interior of the tub (if so equipped).
NOTE: When disinfectant has totally filled the interior plumbing, liquid will begin to flow from the burp fitting located inside the tub bowl near the rim or from the disinfectant wand.
NOTE: Invacare recommends that you thoroughly scrub all interior surfaces of the tub with disinfectant. The use of a long‐handled brush will make this operation easier.
12. Perform one of the following:
• Allow some liquid to pool in the bottom of the tub. Scrub all interior surfaces of the tub, including the whirlpool jets, overflow fitting and whirlpool inlet fitting with disinfectant.
• If the tub is equipped with a disinfectant wand, spray the interior surfaces of the tub, including the whirlpool jets, overflow fitting and whirlpool inlet fitting with disinfectant. Scrub all interior surfaces.

the tub before immersing the resident. Failure to do so may result in a scalding injury.
The causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows:
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level
several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6° F. The symptoms of
hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness,
lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include:
•Failure to perceive heat
•Failure to recognize the need to exit the spa or hot tub
•Unawareness of impending hazard
•Fetal damage in pregnant women
•Phyical inability to exit the spa or hot tub
•Unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia.
